About me

Hypnotherapy is about helping people to make positive mental and behavioural changes in their lives. The human mind is highly flexible and under hypnosis it can be instructed to shift and change deep-seated attitudes, fears, addictions, anxieties and behaviours.

Hypnosis does not take control of you but, instead, shows you how to take control of yourself.

During hypnosis you will enjoy deep, enjoyable relaxation and find the impulse to change your life for the better, whether that be losing weight, giving up smoking or tackling anxiety, depression or other problems.

I am an experienced, Worcestershire-based hypnotherapist recognised as a Senior Practitioner by the General Hypnotherapy Standards Council. I am also registered with The Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council. I have been awarded the prestigious externally-verified Hypnotherapy Practitioner Diploma from the National Council for Hypnotherapy. I am also a qualified counsellor and an accredited member of the National Counselling Society.

I am able to help you with any of the following common problems:

weight control

addictions

anxiety

phobias

stress

depression

lack of confidence/low self-esteem

quit smoking

OCD

trauma

performance

I am also an Anxiety UK Approved Therapist providing therapeutic support to the charity's members and partner beneficiaries. I am subject to Anxiety UK's regular monitoring of my professional qualifications, supervision, continual professional development, insurance and professional body membership in addition to complying with the ethical framework and professional standards set down by my registered governing body.

Full details of the Anxiety UK Approved Therapist scheme can be found here - www.anxietyuk.org.uk/getinvolved/therapists-at-anxiety-uk. Details about becoming a member of Anxiety UK to be able to access therapy via the charity can be found here at www.anxietyuk.org.uk/membership.

My practice offers appointments in Worcester and Malvern.

I am able take bookings on weekdays and Saturday mornings. I welcome enquiries from people who just want to chat about their problems with no commitment over the phone and decide for themselves whether hypnotherapy might be right for them. Clients do not have to commit to any extended course of sessions but I allow them to decide for themselves what they require. I welcome clients who wish to experiment with a mixture of hypnotherapy and counselling and I also have a programme of behavioural change for those suffering from anxiety and depression.

I also accept clients of all ages and have worked successfully with children and the retired.

I adapt my approach to the individual and always try to treat clients on their own terms.

* If you have been diagnosed or suspect you may have one of the medical conditions starred above, you should consult your GP
for advice, diagnosis and treatment and always inform your health professional before starting any alternative or additional therapies or
treatments.

Fees

£60 per session (£80 for quit smoking). There is no requirement to book any number of sessions. All clients simply pay-as-they-go and the number of sessions will be according to individual judgement. Clients can have a telephone discussion about their needs with me on a no-commitment, no-fee basis at any time including weekends.
